Noooooooooooooo.

Florida won tonight.  The Leafs need to start winning.  They play Tampa on Tuesday.  Florida could gain even more ground.

Ugh the Hurricanes won in a shootout.  From what I gather James Reimer could potentially become their #1 goalie. It's a really tough fight for the Leafs to make the playoffs this season.  They're going to need good goaltending.  If I were Dubas I'd be seriously tempted to acquire some type of...

Campbell stood on his head in the third period last night.  That game could have very easily ended in a loss for the Leafs.  They clearly looked exhausted. Florida has two games in two nights coming up this week.  I hope the Leafs can win their next few games to get them more firmly into a...

What is the conditional third round pick conditional on? This looks like a very good trade to me.  Anything can happen in the playoffs.  I just hope the Leafs can make it in.

The team is in an interesting position this season and I don't envy Dubas in terms of the decisions he's going to have to make.  What he does at the deadline is going to have lasting consequences.  With more cap space opening up next season, the Leafs are in a good position to sell off some...

I have to say that I'm personally blown away by Nylander this season.  Some of the characters on here have been right about him all along, I will give you that.  His contract looks like a bargain at $7M/per with his current level of play.  He's absolutely flying out there and playing at an elite...

Liljegren has been called up.  8)

I have to say I'm pleasantly surprised by the Ryu signing.  The Jays will be a more interesting team to watch now.  They could still use more pitching, but at the same time they have plenty of guys who could use development at the MLB level. I'm kind of intrigued by the David Price talk.  My...

Dubas is pissing me off at this point.  Why we have Hutchinson starting another game on Saturday is beyond me.  It is crystal clear at this point that the guy sucks and is not an NHL goalie.  We're just giving up more and more wins putting him in the net.  I'm ok with Dubas making mistakes. ...

What colour is the hat?

It's amazing to see the team playing this well this quickly under Keefe.  I'm super happy for Barrie with 2 goals in 2 games under the new coach.

Mirtle is reporting that 90% of the players were happy to see Babcock go.  Seeing Babcock only thank Morgan Reilly is pretty telling.

Drafting well relies on your scouts.  Developing players well is a team effort.  If those are your reasons for liking Shapiro and Atkins, all I can say is "wow". The real role of the GM is to acquire good players, either via free agency or trade.  On that level, current management has been an...

The team is a hot mess.  They desperately need pitching and they let a guy like Tepera walk.  If that was their plan they should have traded him long ago. Again, this is reading comprehension fail on your behalf.  I keep telling you that Tepera is the straw that broke the camel's back for me. ...
